Title: Hoisting device with variable lifting speed
Inventor: BUEHNE WERNER DIPL-ING
IPC: B66C13/26
Filed: 1992-10-06
Abstract: A hoisting device (5) which is driven by a three-phase asynchronous motor (4) having a squirrel-cage rotor is intended to be driven with a variable lifting speed from a single-phase or multi-phase AC network (1). This is possible as a result of a voltage intermediate-circuit converter (2) which is supplied on the network side from the single-phase or multi-phase AC network (1) and, on the load side, supplies a three-phase network (3) to which the asynchronous motor (4) is connected. The frequency of the three-phase network (3), and hence also the lifting speed of the hoisting device, can be higher than the frequency of the single-phase or multi-phase AC network (1) and the lifting speed resulting therefrom. Provided between the three-phase network (3) and the voltage intermediate-circuit converter (2) is a regulator (6) which limits the maximum frequency in a load-dependent manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A high power-factor converter (50) for use with motor drives and power supplies. A first and "buck"-type converter section (62) is connected to an a.c. voltage source. This section provides an output voltage having preselected voltage characteristics. This section is operational during that portion of an input voltage cycle in which the input voltage level exceeds that of the output voltage level. A second and "boost"-type converter section (70) is also connected to the voltage source. This second section also provides the output voltage, and is operational during that portion of the input voltage cycle in which the output voltage level exceeds that of the input voltage level. A control circuit (66) is responsive to the relative levels of the input and output voltages to operate the first and second converter sections on a time sharing basis in which converter operation is switched between the two converter sections as a function of the sensed actual output voltage characteristics compared to the preselected characteristics. This permits the converter to maintain a nearly full conduction angle, and therefore a high power factor, for any level of output voltage in a range from zero volts to voltage levels higher than the peak input voltage level.

Abstract: A film mode provides for increased vertical resolution in the case of film-scanned source signals. An information item on whether such a source signal is present can be transmitted together with the television signal. An evaluation in the receiver, however, necessitates a not inconsiderable hardware complexity under certain circumstances. In addition, it is not ensured that all television transmitters or all programmes transmit this additional information. A check is made for all vertically adjacent pairs of pictures whether the amplitude of the two pictures vertically between these from the two adjacent fields is between the amplitudes of the pair of pictures. These comparison results are combined within each field. These results of the combination must correspond to a particular pattern of in each case a particular number of fields for the film mode to be detected. The switching-off criteria are less strict. A certain number of 'wrong' combination results may occur within a predetermined number of fields. Film mode is only switched off when this number is exceeded. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved flexible wiping blade for the vacuum pickup squeegee of a floor scrubbing machine. A series of small protuberances with spaces between them are provided at the lower edge of the blade on its surface that leads when the machine moves backward. At that time the reverse flexing of the blade moves the protuberances under the blade and they hold it off the floor, thus allowing any standing water on the floor to move under the squeegee. They do not interfere with normal flexing of the blade under normal down pressure, and they permit its wiping action to be free of streaks when the scrubbing machine moves forward.

In another embodiment, filling yarn is inserted weftwise in every fabric course. The fabric is preferably finished with a starch application to improve handleability during subsequent processing and, in the case of the second embodiment, a fluorocarbon composition is applied when the fabric will be adhered to a foam carpet backing to restrict foam penetration into the fabric interstices.

Abstract: A switch assembly having a rocker type actuator user rotatable for sequentially actuating plural switches. The rocker contacts, off center a lever beam supported at its end by plungers disposed to actuate the individual membrane switches or optical activators. User applications of an initial force to the rocker causes the lever beam to pivot about the remote plunger for actuation of the switch closest to the rocker contact point. After actuation of the closest switch, user application of a greater force continues rotation of the rocker to cause the lever beam to pivot about the closest plunger for causing actuation of the remote switch. Overtravel is shared by beam deflection of the lever and columnar compression of cylindrical tower portions of the resilient membranes.

Abstract: A semiconductor flow sensor (10) provides a self-aligning seal between the sensor (10) and a manifold (70) carrying the fluid being measured. The sensor (10) includes a sensing element (18) and a semiconductor body (12) having a fluid flow region formed therein. The sensing element (18) crosses through a portion of the flow region and is supported by the semiconductor body (12). A characteristic of the fluid flowing through the flow region is measured by operation of the sensing element (18). A sealing ring (16) integrally disposed on the semiconductor body (12) surrounds the flow region and further provides a seal between the sensor (10) and a manifold (70). To ensure accurate placement of the sealing ring (16) with respect to the sensing element (18), the sealing ring (16) is electroplated to the semiconductor body (12) prior to formation of the flow region. A pressure and temperature stable seal between the sensor and the manifold is achieved by either compression of the sealing ring (16), or solder bonding of the sealing ring (16) to the manifold (70). The direction of fluid flow relative to the flow sensor (10) is either perpendicular or parallel to a plane formed by the sensor.
